Cited as his best film since The Son’s Room, Nanni Moretti’s semi-autobiographical Mia madre revisits the themes of family relationships and loss which occupy his earlier film. Margherita (Margherita Buy) is a director in the midst of shooting her next film, whilst dealing with the emotional strain of looking after her very sick, elderly mother. Co-starring Moretti as Margherita’s melancholy brother and John Turturro as demanding American actor Barry Huggins, the film centres on Margherita’s struggle to keep her professional and private worlds separate.
